What organelle of a prokaryotic cell contains genetic information?

1 answer:

4 0

There is actually no membrane bounded or enclosed organelle that contain the genetic content and or information within a prokaryote. In bacteria, for instance the bacterial genome, which is that of a enclosed single double stranded circular DNA molecule is associated with histone like proteins and found within the cytoplasmic region of a cell in an irregular manner. It is termed the nucleoid.

How are the molecular mass and molar mass of a compound similar and how are they different?

4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

Similarities: both state the mass of chemical species and they have the same numerical value

Differences: molecular mass refers to one single molecule and molar mass refers to one mole of a molecule

Explanation:

The molecular mass is the value of the mass of each molecule and it is measured in mass units (u). It is calculated adding the mass of each atom of the molecule.

The molar mass is the value of the mass of one mole of molecules, which means the mass of 6.022140857 × 10²³ molecules. The unit is g/mol.

For example, we can consider the methane molecule, which has the chemical formula of CH₄:

Molecular mass CH₄ = C mass + 4 x (H mass)

Molecular mass CH₄ = 12.01 + 4 x (1.01)

Molecular mass CH₄ = 16.05 u

Now to calculate the molar mass we multiply the value of the molecular mass by the Avogadro number and convert the units to g/mol:

Molar mass CH₄: 16.05 x $\frac{1}{6.022140857 x 10x^{23} } g$ x 6.022140857 × 10²³ mol⁻¹

Molecular mass CH₄ = 16.05 g / mol

Iron(III) sulfide reacts with hydrochloric acid to produce hydrogen sulfide and iron(II) chloride. Wright the formula equation f

NeX [460]

Answer:

Fe2S3 + 4HCl —> 2H2S + 2FeCl2 + S

Explanation:

From the question, we were told that:

Iron(III) sulfide reacts with hydrochloric acid to produce hydrogen sulfide and iron(II) chloride.

Please note that elemental sulphur is produced along with this reaction. The equation for the reaction is given below:

Fe2S3 + HCl —> H2S + FeCl2 + S

Now, we can balance the equation as shown below:

There are 3 atoms of S on the left side of the equation and 2 atoms on the right. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of H2S as shown below:

Fe2S3 + HCl —> 2H2S + FeCl2 + S

Now, we have 4 atoms of H on the right side and 1atom on the left side. It can be balance by putting 4 in front of HCl as shown below:

Fe2S3 + 4HCl —> 2H2S + FeCl2 + S

Also, there are 4 atoms of Cl on the left side and 2 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of FeCl2 as shown below:

Fe2S3 + 4HCl —> 2H2S + 2FeCl2 + S

Now, we can see that the equation is balanced
